Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate
the correct answer to each of the questions.
It is a common saying that we do not fully value a thing until we lose it. We often value the
love and worth of a friend when he has been taken from US by death more than when he was
with US in the flesh; it is only when we have left school or college that we understand the
greatness of our opportunity of education, which has gone forever; and it is the sick and the ailing
who realize the value of good health, when we are young and strong, we cannot imagine what it
is to be weak and ailing. We are so used to vigorous health that we take it for granted. The organs
of our body work so smoothly that we scarcely know we have lungs and liver, heart and stomach.
But when any of these gets upset and gives US pain and sickness, we learn by bitter experience
what an unspeakable blessing it is to be well.
Loss of health makes US miserable, and a burden to ourselves and our friends. It cripples
our efforts so that we cannot accomplish many of the good and great things we might have done.
It spoils our life. What must we do to keep our health?
We must be moderate in eating and drinking and wise in the choice of plain, wholesome
simple food. Gluttony has killed thousands, and strong drink tens of thousands. We must, when
young, get plenty of sleep, which is "nature's sweet restorer", and not try to burn the candle at
both ends. We must live as much as possible in the open air and keep our rooms well ventilated.
We must get sufficient and regular physical exercise, and keep our bodies clean. And we must
avoid bad habits and secret sins as we avoid the devil, and keep our thoughts clean and our bodies
pure. Our ideal must be the sound mind in the sound body.
29. According to the passage, we often appreciate our friends________________.
A. only when they are with US B. only when they are good to US.

Florida’s “Everglades”, the largest national park in the eastern USA, are in serious danger. One of
the most significant areas of “wetland” in the world, and classified by UNESCO as a “World
Heritage Site”, the park has suffered dramatically over the last sixty years on account of
encroaching agriculture and the vast expansion of Florida’s population. If the decline is not
stopped, the entire ecosystem of southern Florida could be irreparably damaged – and the
sunshine state, one of the fastest growing states in the USA, could become an inhospitable
wasteland.

Back in the year 2000, in order to prevent just such a catastrophe, and ensure the survival of
America’s most distinctive National Park, Congress approved a 30-year 8.2 billion dollar
Everglades rescue plan, the largest concerted environmental project the world had ever known.
Estimated at 10,700 square miles (27,000 km2), the original Everglades area was home to a
fantastically rich and diverse range of wildlife; but in recent decades, this wildlife has already
been decimated. It is estimated that the water-bird population of the Everglades has fallen by 93%
in the last forty years.

Unless more progress is made, the outlook for the future is not good, and large parts of the
Everglades’ vital and remarkable ecosystems may be damaged beyond repair.

41. Florida’s “ Everglades”, the largest national park in the eastern USA, are in ______

A. the best condition.

B. serious danger.

C. floods and storms.

D. the risk of disapearance.

42. Which of the following is NOT the reason that makes the park suffer dramatically over the
last sixty years ?

A. the encroachment of agriculture.

B. the vast expansion of population.

C. industrial pollution.

D. the increase in population.

Trang 54/90
A. This wildlife has already been destroyed.

B. This wildlife has already been preserved.

C. This wildlife has already been conserved.

D. This wildlife has already been saved and cared.

44. How many percentages of the water – bird population of the Everglades has fallen in the last
forty years ?

A. exactly 7%

B. exactly 93%

C. nearly 93%

D. less than 7%

45. What is the message to the readers?

A. We should take action to protect the service in the national park-Florida’s “ Everglades”.

B. We should take action to protect agriculture in Florida.

C. We should take action to protect animals in Florida.

The bee, like the ant. is a social insect. Bees live in groups in a hive, and every bee does certain
work that helps the other members of the group. In a beehive there are three kinds of bees: the
queen bee, the drones, and the workers. The worker bees go from flower to flower collecting
nectar, or juice, which is composed mostly of sugar mixed with water. Bees draw this nectar into
the honey sacks of their bodies, and enzymes in their bodies turn the nectar into honey. This
newly made honey flows slowly from the underside of the bees and is stored in cells in the hive to
be used as food during the winter months. Some people are in the honey business and keep
hundreds of hives. Beekeepers remove honey from the hives and pack it in bottles or jars. Honey
usually appears as a clear golden-colored liquid, but this depends on the kind of flower from
which the bees have taken the nectar.

The idea for creating a day for children to honor their fathers began in Spokane, Washington. A
woman by the name of Sonora Smart Dodd thought of the idea for Father’s Day while listening to
a Mother’s Day sermon in 1909. Having been raised by her father, William Jackson Smart, after
her mother died, Sonora wanted her father to know how special he was to her. It was her father
that made all the parental sacrifices and was, in the eyes of his daughter, a courageous, selfless,
and loving man. Sonora’s father was born in June, so she chose to hold the first Father’s Day
celebration in Spokane, Washington on the 19th of June, 1910. In 1972, President Richard Nixon
established a permanent national observance of Father’s Day to be held on the third Sunday of
June.

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, c, or D to indicate the correct answer
to each of the questions.

Pronouncing a language is a skill. Every normal person is an expert in the skill of pronouncing
his own language; but few people are even moderately proficient at pronouncing foreign
languages. There are many reasons for this, some obvious, some perhaps not so obvious. But I
suggest that the fundamental reason why people in general do not speak foreign languages very
well is that they fail to grasp the true nature of the problem of learning to pronounce, and
consequently never set about tackling it in the right way. Too many people fail to realize that
pronouncing a foreign language is a skill - one that needs careful training of a special kind, and
one that cannot be acquired by just leaving it to take care of itself. I think even teachers of
languages, while recognizing the importance of a good accent, tend to neglect, in their practical
teaching, the branch of study concerned with speaking the language. So the first point I want to
make is that English pronunciation must be taught; the teacher should be prepared to devote some
of the lesson time to this, and should get the student to feel that here is a matter worthy of
receiving his close attention. So, there should be occasions when other aspects of English, such
as grammar or spelling, are allowed for the moment to take second place.

28. What does the writer actually say about pronouncing foreign languages?

A. Only a few people are really proficient.

B. No one is really an expert in the skill.

Trang 84/90
C. There aren’t many people who are even fairly good.

D. There are a lot of people who are moderately proficient.

29. The writer argues that going about the problem of pronunciation in the wrong way is .........

A. an obvious cause of not grasping the problem correctly

B. a fundamental consequence of not speaking well

C. a consequence of not grasping the problem correctly

D. not an obvious cause of speaking poorly

30. The underlined word “one” in the passage refers to .........

A. skill

B. careful training

C. special kind

D. itself

31. The best way of learning to speak a foreign language, he suggests, is by .........

A. picking it up naturally as a child

B. learning from a native speaker

C. not concentrating much on pronunciation

D. taking on systematic work
